@lynne
can someone snatch my legal name if I let it expire?

@nytpu
one day we'll have a GNU+Linux (or Musl+busybox+Linux) distro that works well on smartphones.... and then someone will try to make a smartphone with a physical keyboard, and it'll finally have a purpose

@whitequark
basys 2 was fun, but idk what price / fpga size range it was in

@piggo battery

@jmaris I think we have some indirect levers too.

For example, we could increase our trade with China. Or India.

@rozeboosje @Iwillyeah @jmaris
I don't like China either, but USA dislikes China even more, and I think we can use that.

Though the extent to which we can use that is limited by the amount of sanctions EU has put on China up to now...

@Suiseiseki
are you sure glibc puts the dynamic linker at the same path regardless if it's built for Linux, HURD, or kFreeBSD? And on all these systems, the path contains the word "linux"?

@Suiseiseki I meant "x86-64 glibc Linux system" but it autocorrected "glibc" to "going" :blobfacepalm:

chickens when you don't let them out when it's cold and windy: fuck you, no eggs for you

chickens when you do let them out when it's cold and windy: I'm just gonna hang out inside next to the door, cause who'd want to go outside in this weather

@piggo how expensive is used RX 6600 for you?

you've heard of sticker exchange, now prepare for

sticker put options: you pay someone to be able to, in the future, put a sticker of your choice on their laptop

I always thought the rule was, on a 2-person-wide escalator, the right side is for those who stand, and the left side is for those who walk

@lanodan @nytpu ok I made a mental shortcut.

*If* you want to guarantee that your server will not be harmed by a malicious server, *then* you need a veto power over every server that joins the network.

So if we assume that every server in the network wants such a guarantee, then each of them needs a veto power, which means the only way to provide that guarantee is by requiring consensus whenever a new server wants to join.

@lanodan @nytpu
no I mean

Let's say there's ANet.

If I run a server, and one of the ANet servers agrees to let me connect to it, everything I send over that S2S connection propagates to the whole ANet.
I'm part of ANet now.

If I then let Eris connect to my server, Eris becomes connected to ANet.

Now, if this was EFNet not ANet, that would violate the Eris-free invariant, so EFNet would need to apply secondary sanctions and disconnect from my server, in order to stay Eris-free.

@lanodan @nytpu
Hmm ok so a server can decide to not carry some channels, or ban some users...

But all servers still have to agree on who is an op on each channel.

Which means a malicious server can mess up the whole network.

And server interconnection is transitive, which means adding a new server to the network requires consensus.

Sounds kinda like EU...

@nytpu was it really federated though? Would it still work if each server admin enforced their local rules?

prediction: bubble won't burst today

@amonakov
Well this one was 20ms sys, which could be pagefaults... gonna try smaller chunks later.

@algernon
I have things

OG print10.c: 556ms

print10-gr.c:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/random.h>

#define ITERATIONS 100000000

int main() {
static char maze[ITERATIONS];

getrandom(maze, sizeof(maze), 0);

for (long i = 0; i < ITERATIONS; i++) {
maze[i] = maze[i] % 2 ? '/' : '\\';
}
write(1, maze, ITERATIONS);

return 0;
}

190ms

@algernon how do you compile the rust version?

I'm guessing you need to use cargo to get the fastrand library?
